I love collector's houses,
so when I saw artist Ricky Swallow
post the above picture on Instagram,
I had to find its source.
The source turned out to be
'Art in America', Nov. - Dec. 1967.

Nothing better for me!
This just leaves me wanting more....

ReplyDeleteSpent a lot of time at the Chaim Gross' as a child. Always felt the richness and warmth of the environment. Fun to see photos of their brownstone in the village from so many decades ago.
